Lisa Stevenson is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at McGill University and the editor of Critical Inuit Studies: An Anthology of Contemporary Arctic Ethnography (2006).
"Life Beside Itself is a profound reflection on the psychic life of biopolitics and how the biopolitical state, committed to enhancing the life of the population, renders lifeless a people’s particular form of life. Lisa Stevenson writes with attentiveness to the care that binds the living and the dead in Inuit communities. That is itself a form of ethical living. Her writing is surely touched by grace. Her book illuminates the problem of suicide as the light of the moon illuminates a darkened sky. She helps us not to turn away from this suffering but to hold it. This book is truly a treasure."—Veena Das, author of Affliction: Health, Disease, Poverty

断断续续地终于读完了。对写作方式有讨厌的共振感-因为我自己也爱这么写东西,所以既喜欢又排斥这样时不时令人觉得很absorbing的论述。但书里的一些概念倒是真的和我的project很搭,只是我觉得作者都没有深入讲清楚。
评分Excellent writing skill. How can we imagine life without-out the power of biopolitics? The book, in the end, is still vague about the answer.
